#142 | How Are We Not Dead? | Dan's Warstory

When we stop and reflect on everything we did in our past, the crazy, the insane, the absolutely mind-blowing behavior, it's a wonder that we’re still here. Today’s topic is about that! How are we not dead?

This topic was inspired by our warstory this week from Dan. Dan is a helluva guy in the community, boots on the ground working to help others get clean and sober. But before Dan was doing any of that, he was living a life that few could handle. Despite the many opportunities for death and disaster, he is still around today to tell the story. For that we are grateful.

Thanks Dan for sharing your story!
